What does a sports medicine doctor do?
A sports medicine doctor studied family medicine and then pursued additional education and practice in sports medicine. Our orthopedic and sports health team can help anyone recover from accidents or injuries. Sports medicine physicians can also help you manage pain and improve the function of muscles, joints and digits (hands, feet, fingers and toes).
